Conservatives Accuse New Docuseries About 'Queer' Animals Of Pushing 'Satanic Gay Agenda'

The upcoming Peacock docuseries 'Queer Planet,' which highlights sexuality and gender in the animal kingdom, has conservatives losing their minds.

Conservatives are having another meltdown over LGBTQ+ individuals and the basic facts of science, except this time it's not queer people they're furious about, but queer animals.

Yes, the people who would have you believe they're saving the world from the incalculable evil of liberalism would also have you believe that gay animals—the very gay animals that have existed for as long as the Earth has—are a threat.


Peacock has had the audacity to explore sexuality in the animal kingdom in a documentary called Queer Planet, and right-wingers are acting like it's the end of the world.

Queer Planet arrives just in time for Pride Month, and explores things like gay penguins, bisexual lions and clownfish who change their sex as they see fit.

As Peacock said of the show:

"This documentary looks at extraordinary creatures, witnesses amazing behaviors, and introduces the scientists who are questioning the traditional concept of what’s natural when it comes to sex and gender."

Despite the documentary focusing on scientific facts, the usual far-right suspects have been crowing about it being "Satanic" and "sick," and holding the documentary up as the latest evidence that LGBTQ+ and liberals are "coming for your kids," in the words of one YouTube commenter.

And then there's geniuses like bankrupt far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who tweeted that "'Queer Planet' equals a dead planet," because apparently merely acknowledging the existence of gay animals now means every animal on Earth will never again reproduce.

Naturally, those who aren't slavering morons found the conservative Queer Planet uproar ridiculous and even hilarious.






Queer Planet premieres June 6.

Even Trump's NASA Director Had To Set Kim Kardashian Straight After She Said The Moon Landing 'Didn't Happen'

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy—who is also NASA's Acting Administrator—issued the weirdest fact-check ever when he corrected reality star Kim Kardashian after she revealed herself to be a moon landing conspiracist.

Conspiracy theorists have long alleged the moon landing was fabricated by NASA in what they claim was an elaborate hoax—and Kardashian certainly made it clear where she stands in a video speaking to co-star Sarah Paulson on the set of the new Hulu drama All’s Fair.

Watters had guessed he was dressed as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who spearheaded the nation's COVID-19 pandemic response.
